GOOD NEWS ! GOOD NEWS ! ! NO MORE FOOT ROT. GRAHAM & CO.'S Permanent Cure forPootrot (PATENTED). TO SHEEPOWNERS. NOW the Wool Market is firmer, and prices aro ruling higher every day, SAVE YOUR SHEEP that would otherwiso bo worthless, at a cost of ONE BALFI PENNY per HEAD. It has often been remarked, and is undoubtedly true, that tho shecpownors' worst enemy i 3 FOOTROT. Its effects aro soon shown m the declining condition oE the sheep and its wool, and although lately many scientific opinions have been expressed with regard to it m the public Press, thcro is no doubt that tho so-called remedies there suggested havo all been tried m these colonies, ending only m disappointment and failure, the result being that m using arsenic, vitriol, carbolic acid, and other things that are recommended, they have added fuel to the fire m burning the sbeeps' feet altogether, and m most instances making them worse than before. With all deference to tho opinions of these scientific men, our thirty years' practical (not theoretical) experience of sheep, and study of this question, has led us to come to the conclusion that the CAUSES and NATURE of this disease are not understood, and up to the present time it ha 3 always been wrongly treated. We invite tho public to road tho following testimonial, which shows that we CAN CURE FOOTROT for OVER TWELVE MONTHS, and this m a case where all other means had been tried and failed :— " Flaxton, June 28th, 1886. "Messrs W. Graham and Co., Southbrook. " Dear Sirs, — We have pleasuro m stating that the Bheep you dressed for us m May 1885, OVER TWELVE MONTHS AGO, have remained PERFECTLY SOUND on their feet ever since, and aro still running on tho SAME MARSHY BWAMP without, showing any signs of FOOTROT.— YourB faithfully, Wallace 8b03." Wo can also bring PROOF that we have not failed m any singlo instanco to effect a COMPLETE CURE, cvon m the worst cases, where numbers of sheep have DIED EVERY YEAR. Our chief difficulty is to CONVINCE tho public that this is not one of the many spurious patent medicines which have from time to time been foisted upon them, but wo trust tho following disinterested testimonial to our Agents will set them right : — " Leslie Hills, Oulverden, " June 17th, 1886. "Messrs Matson, Buss and Co., Rangiora. " Dear Birs, — I notice by the Standard that Graham and Co. aro now offering their euro for footrot for eale to the public. I havo always been very sceptical as to the results of these patent cures for diseases m sheep, of which we have had so many offered us of late. I am quite satisfied that if Graham and Co. will only Bell us tho quality of stuff as ho used himself when working on footrot sheep m this district, thero will be no necessity for Graham and Co. to go to Kimberley for some years. I have seen a. good deal of the Montrose rams these few years j they were TERRIBLY BAD with footrot, and B 3 Graham cured them with two dressings, I am NOW SATISFIED that a CURE for footrot HAS BEEN FOUND. I havo never had any footrot on this proporty till the other day a few footrot Bheep camo m a mob of crossbreds from turnips. Please send me atonre a gallon of Graham and Co.'s Patent, to tho care of 1) , nnd oblige. — Yours faithfully, Duncan Ruthbbfobd" Wo can assure tho public that we havo only one standard for our Preparation, and that is the BEST.
